Plug in your handheld's card, pick the folder in Chrome, and RetroMod Guides drops the best English GameFAQs walkthrough next to every game it recognizes. Read it on-device, mid-boss, no phone required.
Works in Chrome and Edge on desktop. Your files never leave your machine.
Pop the SD card into your computer, hit launch, and choose its
Roms folder. Card root works too - the tool finds Roms on
its own.
Your ROM names are checked against a 17,400-game GameFAQs index, entirely in the browser. Exact hits, careful fuzzy matches, and a sequel guard so Final Fantasy II never gets the guide for III.
The best English walkthrough is saved as Game Name.txt
beside each ROM, streamed straight from archive.org. Open it on your
handheld whenever you get stuck.
No server, no upload, no analytics. The browser reads your folder, matches locally, and writes the .txt files right back to the card.
Sourced from the classic GameFAQs text archive preserved on archive.org. Plain .txt renders perfectly on a 3.5 inch screen.
Stock Anbernic, OnionOS and GarlicOS folder names all work: FC, SFC, MD, PS, GBA and friends map straight to the right platform.
Existing .txt files are never touched, downloads run three at a time to be gentle on archive.org, and re-running skips what's done.
Chrome or Edge on a desktop. They ship the File System Access API the tool needs to write files back to your card. Firefox and Safari can't do that yet.
No. It only ever creates new .txt files, and it skips any game that already has one. Saves, states and box art are ignored entirely.
From the GameFAQs text archive preserved on archive.org: 17,400 classic walkthroughs, FAQs and movelists in plain text, streamed on demand.
Probably. Any device that keeps ROMs in per-console folders (FC, SFC, MD, PS and so on) matches fine. If a folder name isn't recognized, the scan simply tells you and touches nothing.
Nothing. No account, no tracking, no premium tier. It's a free tool for people who love old games.
